This is your last chance to guess what 18.5 will be. We have practiced Thrusters, Snatches, Pullups, and now Wallballs. As we said on the streets of Fairfield County, Connecticut, don’t just sing it, bring it. 10 Rounds In 30 seconds, perform as many Wallball Shots, 20/14, as possible Rest 30 seconds In 30 seconds,...Read More
How to Cheat at HSPU from the CrossFit Games site. Every year in the Open, CrossFit will throw something at you that you are not prepared for. Sometimes, it’s many things. The HSPU standard this year was particularly unforgiving. In the last 2 to 3 years, you had maybe 2-3 inches of room for error....Read More
Make sure you input your score for 18.4 by 5pm on Monday so we can validate. We have one more week of the Open. It’s tie dye week, so can I bust out my best Grateful Dead bootlegs for the workout? What’s left? Snatches? Box Jumps? Wallball Shots? I would bet a paycheck on a...Read More
Head up! It’s Saturday during the Open – we are doing 18.4! If you already did it, come in and add some variation to it. Try it RX if you went scaled. Try it scaled if you went RX. Big Shoutout to Amie who came in wanting to go scaled and then got 2 handstand...Read More
I am psyched about this workout – we lift heavy ALL of the time and we practice handstand walks ALL of the time. If you think you can do the set of 21 unbroken, break them into smaller sets, like 7’s. That 315/2015 bar is going to be heavy. If you think you are going...Read More

We are over the middle hump of the Open. We are starting to whittle down the movements we can reasonably expect to see: HSPU, C2B, Thrusters, Snatch, Box Jump. Alison is thinking we see pistols this year – because in the hint – the egg is balancing. She was right last week: The hint had...Read More

18.3 is here and Amie said it was a ton of fun. I believe her. If muscle ups are not your jam, but you can double under and overhead squat the RX weight, you should do that. Once you get to the muscle ups, your open time will be over, but you can continue with...Read More
